BOTTOM: Konad image plate- M57, MAC paint pot- Bare study, Revlon- all over eyeshadow brush

OPI- teenage dream. (so sorry about the poor lighting in this picture)
This is one of my all time favorite OPI polishes. I love all the glitter, big and small silver and pink micro glitter. The brush is a little too big for my nails but that's only because I have small hands. the only thing i hate about OPI polishes is that they are SO expensive in Australia and you can only get them from a limited amount of stores. OPI costs $20 and I only know of two stores in my state that sell it. If you don't have this polish already i suggest you go and get it.   

OPI- Do you lilac it?
My favorite colour is purple and this is my favorite polish ever! Its not a dark purple which is good because I don't really like dark shades of purple as much. The application is good because this polish is opaque in two coats. Again this OPI polish is really expensive but it is totally worth it, I wear this polish all the time because I love it so much.

Senche Vite- quick dry top coat
This is the best top coat I have. It doesn't chip or dis-colour the polish when you apply it. it lasts  at least 4-6 days without chipping which is amazing considering all the things you do while your wearing nail polish. I defiantly recommend you go and buy this top coat if you don't already have it. Its amazing!

ORLY- bonder (base coat)
Although i have only used this 5-6 times since I got it, it is the best base coat I have compared to the sinful colours and china glaze ones.It is like rubber, it sticks to your nails and the polish you apply over the top sticks to it as well.

Smashbox- photo finish oil-free primer
My first primer. Since I got this primer, I have not tried any other ones, that is how good it is! i have big pores around my nose so this covers them up amazingly. It keeps my makeup on all day and 
I have had hardly any pimples since I have started using it. i HIGHLY recommend this primer! 

Revlon- colorstay in Buff
I wear this liquid foundation every day. It is my favorite full-coverage base because it isn't too thick and I need to cover-up the scars on my nose and forehead. It is water-proof which is good in summer for swimming, and is easy to remove with make-up remover.

MAC- white gold pigment
This was the first MAC pigment i brought and i fell in love with it. its such an unusual colour because its white base has small gold pigments in it. its a great highlighter and i use it as a base.

MAC- Melon pigment
i loveeeeeeee this pigment. its unlink any other pigment I have seen before. It is such a beautiful colour and suits my skin tone. I wear this nearly every day because it looks really good with my eyes and I just love it. Its a great pigment for day and night-time wear!

MAC- limited edition hello kitty liquid eyeliner
The tip of this brush is perfect for my eyes because it is small. The application is a little hard because the brush isnt bent but it is still okay. I love this mainly because it is hello kitty, other then that it is just like the normal MAC liquid eyeliner.

MAC- paint pot in bare study
Sorry I didnt get to take a picture of  the inside of the pot because my camera died. But heres a link to have a look at it HERE. Makeup alley also gives it a 4.2 our of 5.I love this eye primer because it is a cute shimmery beige colour. I sometimes wear it as a eyeshadow by its self because its so beasutiful. It keeps my eye makeup looking fresh all day and night.

Nivea- daily essentials light moistorizing day cream
I use this on my face before I go to bed because it is so light. It is not sticky or heavy which is good for my face because it is dry in some spots but oily in others so its a nutural moistorizer for my face.

NAK- dry shampoo for blondes
This is a life saver. My hair tends to go a bit 'oily' after the day I washed it. You just spray it on your hair, brush it out, and it looks clean again. You can also buy it in different hair colours, or one for all hair colours. Definatly get a dry shampoo if you dont already have one.

Dove- beauty body lotion
I use this as an everyday moitorizer because its not too heavy and it is just perfect for my skin. This also has the best smell to it as well.

Nivea- Express Hydration body lotion
I use this on my legs because they are always so dry (i dont know why) Its a deep mostorizer which works quickly to give your skin some moisture. I definatly suggest people with dry skin to get this because it works a treat.

Finally it is the end of my post, sorry it was so long. xx
